The first time I heard this song was when I was nine and you would not imagine that age I certainly understood what this song is all about. Don’t forget me is an old song coming from Captain and Tennille the husband and wife team. This is a good …

What I do remember in this song is the part where Git Fresh is sing Bam bam bam part and the ding ding ding ding part. It also uses the intro of the song Tom’s Dinner by Suzanne Vega, so it is easy to remember. It is a great …

Taproot is a band from Michigan that has made it into the mainstream, but I’ve never been sure how popular they really are outside of their home state. They’re definitely worth a listen, though. “Poem” is the most well-known song off of this CD, and for good …

I don’t know how to say this, but I’m so in love with jazz music lately. Especially after I’ve listened to Bossa Nova Stories by Eliane Elias. I do not realize that Jazz music, or rather Bossa Nova could be really attractive and seductive. It makes me …

Grutu is a song by MGMT which appears on their debut album, Climbing To New Lows. What I like about Grutu right away is that the intro of the song has an interesting tone to it, one that I don’t think any of the other songs on this …

I have attended a few venues in Atlanta where Phillipia was performing.
I don’t know much about her except that she’s a 36 year old jazz singer who graces many stages around the Atlanta area (and I presume, beyond). She’s got a great set of pipes. But …

Unfortunately the excellent Neuropa album “The Blitz”, with its (admittedly fairly obvious) World War 2 type plane design on the front, is not easily obtainable in physical form in the United Kingdom, although it is offered by Amazon in individual track form as MP3 downloads. This is rather a …

Lady Gaga’s “Heavy Metal Lover,” from her latest album “Born This Way,” deserves a second chance. The first time I heard the song, I was only half-interested in what I was hearing. The first lines—”“I want your whiskey mouth all over my blonde south”—”caught my immediate attention, and I …

Nickelback’s album “All The Right Reasons” is my favorite album ever. Honestly, I can’t think of any other album in the world that I like more than this one. What do I feel so strongly about it? The fact that every song on it is great! I don’t mind …

I bought Kerplunk a few years ago, wanting to explore more of Green Day’s earlier music. And I’m very glad I did. Years later, I still listen to the CD and enjoy the wonderful music on it.
Released in 1992, I believe that Kerplunk has a different vibe to many …

R. Kelly
“Gotham City (Remix)”
“Batman & Robin” Soundtrack

First there was Prince, then there was R. Kelly, the second worst thing to happen to a ‘Batman’ film soundtrack in the history of the entire ‘Batman’ franchise. Well, it looks like the “I Believe I Can Fly” trick didn’t work …

I am a huge Britney Spears fan. I watch all of her music videos and memorize the words to all of her songs. I own every album and have so many posters all over my walls. Her concerts are amazing and the fact that she’s produced so many hit …

“Bleed” is the third track off of Meshuggah’s 2008 album Obzen. Technically I believe it is a single off the album but I’m not quite sure. I do know that the song kicks major butt and that they do in fact have a music video for it. So going …

Dio’s Holy Diver is among the most important metal albums of all time.Ronnie’s vocals soar with amazing beauty and depth.He is a great front man for any band.Even though I like his work with Black Sabbath much more than solo it still does nothing to change the fact that …

La Rapet is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Kicking off with the vocals right away, the first thing I notice is that better production could’ve certainly helped this song because the vocals are fairly hard to make …

To Rewind Back Time, is a song by the rock band, AXL’S. It also has the title meaning ‘Andai Dapat Ku Undur Masa’. I think the band are no longer around, because lately, I bought a rock classic featuring this song and another Karaoke version of this song …

Overview —“ Last Ride In, a music video released by Green Day for their album Nimrod is actually a music video which is set to an instrument, something that I don’t think is extremely common, particularly in the world of punk rock. Now that I think about it, I …

I have listened to country music all of my life and in today’s market of sell out sounds, this album is a breath of fresh air! Not one to be molded, Trisha stays true to her heart, album after album.
From the opening track, Ms. Yearwood makes evident …

As I mentioned in a couple other reviews, I like dance and electronic music. However, at one point in my life, I had a love for eighties dance and new wave music. Now most of what I would hear would be from listening to songs being played on the …

We Don’t Care is the final track on MGMT’s debut record, Climbing To New Lows. What’s interesting about this song is that I suppose it’s paired with We Care, the first “real” song on this record. As I said in my review of We Care, what I liked about …

I recently purchased the new slash album from walmart because I thought it would be cool to have and interesting to see what kind of music slash is making nowadays. At first I thought it was going to be an ok album but it is actually better than I …

I’d forgotten I had The Canadian Brass: The Canadian Brass Go For Baroque CD to be honest. Now that’s not a bad sign about how I feel about it; it was just buried beneath a large stack of other CDs and remained hidden in a sense.
This was actually …

Lablakely Dress is a song by Animal Collective and the penultimate track on their second album entitled Danse Manatee. To begin, let me just say that after following Ahhh Good Country on the track listing, Lablakely Dress has quite an act to follow, but I will be clear and …
